Overview

The TGA 8000 gives you the confidence that comes with total control of your sample atmosphere, both temperature and gas, due to its broad temperature range, fast heating rates, and integral mass-flow controllers. This easy-to-use instrumentation performs complex characterizations with minimal operational attendance thanks to a new 48-position Autosampler. Designed from the ground up for hyphenation, the TGA 8000 system offers simple coupling, a heated gas-divert valve, and a heated sniffer line to assure optimum performance. PerkinElmer is the only provider that can supply everything you need to understand and implement a complete hyphenation solution for your lab, including instruments, service, and support. Controlled from Pyris software, the platform of choice for Thermal Analysis, the system delivers all the convenience and monitoring capabilities of Apple® iOS software from your iPhone® and iPad® for local control and status monitoring.
